If you experience difficulties during cold engine starting, it is likely that one of the glow plugs is not functioning correctly: the glow plug is essentially an electric resistor that, when the ignition is turned on, is powered and therefore heats up to create the best thermodynamic conditions for the combustion of the injected mixture in the combustion chamber; to check if the glow plug lights up correctly, you can power it directly with two cables from the car battery: once removed, connect the negative cable to the nut seat and the positive to the tip where the power cable is connected, in this way the other end will turn red and glow.

To remove the rear seat of a Hyundai Tucson, follow these steps. Start by moving the front seats to their most forward position to gain space. Next, locate the release lever on the underside of the rear seat, near the floor. Press this lever down while pulling the seat upwards to unlock it from the anchor pins. Once unlocked, tilt the seat upwards and forwards to remove it from its position. Repeat this process for both sides of the rear seat. Be careful of any electrical cables or components that may be connected to the seat during removal. Once the rear seat is removed, the disassembly is complete.
